Secretary Scott Bessent: “Today, in the place where Hamilton’s legacy surrounds us, we are extending the reach of this institution to the young people whom his wife devoted herself to defending. We are affirming that the American Dream belongs to every child. And because of the President and Mrs. Trump, through her Fostering the Future Initiative, we are equipping more children to claim their rightful share of it.”

Yesterday, Secretary Scott Bessent championed President Trump's America First economic agenda in California.

At the Ronald Reagan National Economic Forum, Secretary Scott Bessent laid out the case for a new era of American economic leadership, one that rejects decades of policies that weakened our industrial base, hollowed out critical supply chains, and left our nation dependent on foreign competitors. Under President Trump, America is rebuilding its productive capacity, strengthening economic security, and putting American workers first.

Secretary Scott Bessent continued the Trump Accounts Tour, highlighting how every child can benefit from financial literacy, long-term investing, and the power of compound growth, giving the next generation a stronger stake in America’s economic future. This week, the Trump Accounts app launched on all app stores, providing families with 8 exclusive financial literacy modules prior to the official launch of the accounts on July 4th.

In Westlake Village, Secretary Scott Bessent met with small business leaders to discuss how President Trump's Working Families Tax Cuts are fueling investment, supporting job creation, and helping Main Street businesses grow and thrive.

This Tax Day, tens of millions of taxpayers are feeling the difference of the Working Families Tax Cuts, increasing take-home pay and putting more money back into the pockets of American families, workers, and small business owners.

Under President Trump, we delivered the largest tax cuts in our nation’s history, and we uphold the foundational principle that hardworking Americans should be rewarded, not punished with tax hikes, and the results of this tax season prove it.
